The City and The City is a curatorial collaboration between Sharon Arnold and Portland artist and writer Daniel J Glendening. Taking its title from the novel by China Miéville, the exhibition was born out of a desire to connect two cities that, though psychologically distant, occupy an intersecting geographical region. Often, only one city can be seen at a time, but with a shift in perspective both become visible.

This exhibition features work by eleven Portland-based artists, some of whom will be making their Seattle debut. Working in varied and disparate mediums, the artists included in the exhibition represent a wide range of practices and modes of thought. Despite their material differences, various overlapping themes run through the work, including an interest in site or locale, trans-disciplinary dialogue, immateriality and anxiety.
